A Bench Knife

A bench knife is a flat knife that looks like a wide ruler. It's used to mark cuts in the dough creating equal portions. This special knife can easily scrape off dough from any surface and it doesn't leave behind any marks. They're cheap and easy to find and you can purchase them for less than $8.

Stainless Steel Food Scale

Measurements are key when baking bread. When it boils down to measuring flour, it's better to rely on weighted measurements than to rely on cup measurements. The kitchen scale is essential in any kitchen and it's a compact tool to have. Thanks to its tear-away display, you won't need to break your neck trying to read the measurements since it's pretty straightforward.

Kitchen Thermometer

A kitchen thermometer gives you the perfect texture of bread every single time. A thermapen is on the pricier side but it's an easy to clean and a hassle-free digital thermometer. It also measures water, dough, and bread temperatures. It's much better to rely on one study tool that's a good investment since you know that it'll withstand any type of kitchen cooking
